The back mass wall is up to the 7th course of bags and another course of foam insulation is about to start. In the video I show how the geotextile is woven through the mass wall making it monolithic. This is an invention by Howard Switzer (the Architect on this project) and he calls it "continuous buttress earth-bag walls". This design eliminates the need for poured concrete buttresses and battering the walls (leaning them back) and allows for a cleaner looking straight walled interior. We have had 300% the normal rainfall this summer in TN and this has resulted in much less progess than was anticipated.

Awesome job on this so far. I came back to this video, because I'm curious about the geotextile fabric. If I was to order some of this or find it in a store, what would I be looking for? Or is it a special order kind of thing? Looking forward to seeing this once you get going on the roof. Take care!
